Hey Everyone

The newest sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches has been designed by the wonderfully talented Jen Mitchell. Make sure you head over to Jen’s blog and see her gorgeous creations.

The card I created features leaves from the Soft Seedling Stamp Set. I know, I’ve used this stamp set again, but I am loving it!

I stamped the leaves twice – once in Garden Green Ink and once in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I took my Water Painter and moved the ink around to the edges to create more light and shade. Once the leaves were dry, I fussy cut them and scrunched them in my hand for a more realistic look.

The background Basic White Cardstock was shaded with Crumb Cake Ink and a Blending Brush. As I always do, I took a Soft Suede Blend and flicked ink on to the shading.

I had a torn piece of Garden Green Cardstock on my desk so I layered this under a piece of Kraft Cardstock I had also discarded from another project. The ribbon I added was an off-cut that I stapled on one end and ruched on the other end. A sentiment was added and three Basic Pearl Rhinestones.

The Clean Team have created awesome cards that will no doubt inspire you. Head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
